Bvlgari has launched Jasmin Noir Eau de Toilette, a lighter version of last year’s Jasmin Noir Eau de Parfum:
Jasmin Noir Eau de Toilette maintains the precious “jus” of Jasmin Noir while adding fresher, more radiant notes. Lotus flower, scintillating sap, Sambac jasmine absolute and white musk are the protagonists of this seductive and innovative eau de toilette…
In 2006, hip-hop and fashion mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs launched a cologne with a citrusy scent and risqué marketing campaign - ads showed Combs sitting on a bed with two women - that made it a best-selling fragrance. Combs called it "Unforgivable."
But an influential glass artist from Pittsfield says a more appropriate name might be "Stolen" and forgiveness isn't on his mind.
— Glass artist Tom Patti says the Sean John Unforgivable bottle is a copy of two of his glass sculptures, and he's filed a lawsuit. Read more at Cologne bottle gives artist sense of déjà vu at The Boston Globe.

Men: Sean Combs thinks we’re all descended from kings and we can become kings of something if we constantly believe “I AM KING! I AM KING!” (presumably while wearing I Am King cologne). I’ve thought of myself as a king since birth but, with time running out, I have no kingdom, not even a measly duchy, to call my own.

(Just look at the I Am King print and video ads.)
But my attitude towards Combs softened somewhat when I first read the ingredients list for I Am King…

This one is around 5 minutes long; there is a longer version here where Diddy talks to the camera and explains that the film is his audition for the James Bond role, and dedicates the I Am King fragrance to Martin Luther King, Barack Obama and Muhammad Ali. That one is over 6 minutes…
The next fragrance for men from Sean Comb's Sean John line will be I Am King, due to launch in December. According to Combs,
I Am King is a statement about all men. We are all descendents of royalty — and if we carry ourselves and respect ourselves in that manner and believe in ourselves, then we are all kings.
The notes for I Am King include tangerine zest, orange, cranberry, “a proprietary Imperial French berry note”, kir royal…
